Five Kinds of Stinginess

Anguttara NikayaEarly Buddhist Texts

“Mendicants, there are these five kinds of stinginess. What five? Stinginess with dwellings, families, material things, praise, and the teachings. These are the five kinds of stinginess. The most contemptible of these five kinds of stinginess is stinginess with the teaching.”
